Did it say Unknown error -18? When I first flashed this, it created that smdl2tmp1.asec in .android_secure. I had this problem a long time ago and found it recently again after this flash. Well know Froyo bug, but thought I had rid myself of it. From waht I have tried, it happens for me when the market gets stuck, freezes and I have to pull battery then reboot. Once it reboots, that smd file is in there. If that is the case, then you can hook up to PC and delete it or do thru terminal and rm sdcard/asec/smdl2tmp, I think is the command (might want to google it to be sure). My paids are working for me now and I see that it is working for most on Market 3.0.

If you got a whole different error, then I am sorry for having you read this. Off to lunch.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] tharan.a:
Perhaps, its the market version?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] reverendkjr:
I thought that too, but I have tried multiple versions. I haven't tried Woodrube's idea yet. It is not error -18 that I get, it is just a generic error. Googling the actual error produced very little. I will continue to fiddle with it until i figure it out.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] 3rdstring:
I'm seeing the same issue. I know I updated one of my paid apps, & it FC'd so I uninstalled & was able to DL again either yesterday or the day before, but now it won't DL any of my uninstalled paid apps. I guess I really didn't try before as everything was resored via TB

BTW I'm running the current Market 3.0.27.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Woody:
I am still thinking that it has something to do with the gapps download in the CMwiki not working correctly. Might be wrong but to me it seems like a few things are not working together as a family. I tested again at lunch and mine is no longer working after uninstall. It just hovers and says "Download Unsuccessful". It is not that Unknown Error -18 that is causing the problem (but I am now getting that one also-btw HellMonger got it on Special the other day too).

Wonder if we used TB to restore a gapps set from Dexter or Special or even 2.1 (let it update) and see if that is the problem.

Has anyone tried out any of the other gapps apps? Like maps. No more rhymes now I mean it. Anyone got a peanut.

Check out these threads too.

[Milestone XT720 Android Development] B_e_n:
It can be that to sum up(read this) it says that the issue is due to have 2 launcher installed

For me it s the first thing i do with a new rom remove the other launcher (launcher pro or adw) so i remove them(at the installation) and i never had that problem...

Someone can try ???
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Woody:
I have ADWex (I know that Rev has it too) but CM6 comes with ADW regular (blue). I also have a Launcher Pro as a back up that I have Frozen in TB (b/c I had a home loop while working with the Special Alfa and that really, really sucked). I can't do it b/c I am at work now, but if someone is using ADWex or LPP (make it your default) and Titanium, maybe Freeze ADW regular (blue), reboot and then try the market.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] B_e_n:
Or freeze them all (just keep one launcher) wipe dalvi cache and try again
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] 3rdstring:
I got rid of ADW & have just LPP & the issue remains.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] banshee56:
I've done exactly this and the issue remains.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Woody:
Can you try the TB Market Doctor and see if that works?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] tharan.a:
Who's overclocked this, so far? Still new and haven't overclocked ever though I know the procedure. Using Milestone OverClock, whats the best setting to leave it at? I've also heard that it is best to use SetCPU too. Any input appreciated!
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Woody:
Try 1000/64 (preset) and see how that works for you. Once you get used to it and want to tweak it more, then ask at that time b/c if you vsels are too low you'll get random reboots.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] banshee56:
Just did....no help.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] reverendkjr:
I'm glad that others are finally seeing this problem. I was beginning to think that I was devolving into a N00b!
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
It's quite frustrating. It happened on ESB, too. For whatever reason I'm not having any market problems currently (and I'm just using the one from the CM gapps) O_o
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Woody:
So what I've google is that there are various problems/fixes with the Market Download Unsuccesful issue. Some say to use TB and uninstall market and reinstall. Others say wipe data/cache and retry, some say to log into Gtalk (which has worked for me in the past on several occasions) but the most popular is something in the gapps zip. I am just about out of ideas and will be offline for the whole weekend but here are two short threads from CM forum with same issues.

Good luck young Jedi's ~~ MTFBWY

and

http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/17538-flashed-cm7-rc2gapps-and-cant-downloadinstall-from-market/

Maybe see who has it working and see what they did. I think mchlbenner and JiroPrinz8 both may have it working for them.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] try-and-error:
I finally tried this ROM, too. And I have to say I'm really impressed. :eek:

Very fast, very snappy. Even without overclocking.

The market and wlan is working here. The haptic feedback work fine.

I only have one minor but quite annoying issue. My home button isn't working.

Neither the short press to go back home, nor the long press for the last apps.

Did anybody had the same problem??
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] banshee56:
Any chance you can extract the market app from that update? I think mine was working fine until I updated to the 3.0.26 version (which I don't care for anyway).
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] reverendkjr:
have you been able to successfully install a purchased app?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] 3rdstring:
My purchased apps will install on WiFi but not on 3G.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] banshee56:
OK, I just flashed back to SteelEpicBlueV4, then back to CM6 (with the old market), and I installed purchased apps both on Wifi and 2G.

Not sure if it was simply the older market for something not playing well between CBW Froyo and CM6. I'll do some more testing, both on Market stuff and performance stats with CM6 on top of SteelEpicBlueV4.

On a side note, I never got any of the other ROMs working as well as Khal's V4 ROM, so I think that could be the best base for CM6 (which I think is even better than Khal's V4 ROM)
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] spectacle:
Any manual way to fix the milestone overclock problem? Tried hotfix alot of times already :(
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
Ok, I figured it out. First line of /system/etc/init.d/10overclock change the line:

#!/system/bin/sh

to

#!/system/xbin/sh
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] spectacle:
Omg this worked! Thanks a billion mioz!!
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] en0203:
lovng the rom so far. had undervolt all cpu steps save batt and to prevent overheating. the default camera app and media player is not very stable. suggest all to use lgcamera and moboplayer from the market to replace the stock app. they both work a lot better :)
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] try-and-error:
After installing the gapps update again my home button returns to home.

But the long press and so the task switcher doesn't work yet...

I also can't overclock... I have tried to rename to #!/system/xbin/sh

Didn't work ...

Have tried to load the modules from 10overclock manually. Recieved this error message:

Edit: Strange...

Milestone Overclock cannot load module. If I load overclock_milestone_21.ko manually with insmod the module is loaded. Milestone overclock seems to be OK, I can set higher freq as usual. If I set apply everything looks fine. It shows the new freq and vsel on top... BUT the new freq is not applied.

When I reload setCPU the new freq is not recognized and it stays a stock 720. Quadrant show the old as well.

Now I'm really confused...

My market works fine. Free or purchased app on wifi or 3G. No problems here...
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] spectacle:
The long press to stop app is really really too sensitive lol. Anyone shares the same sentiment?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] eSu.Matix:
Is camera gonna be fixed soon, cause I'm going to seaside tomorrow and I will need it for sure?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] JiroPrinz8:
Yup this worked for me as well! Thanks MZ! do i just delete the .bak?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ltwvince:
You can just delete the .bak. ;)
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] B_e_n:
How do you edit the /system/etc/init.d/10overclock file????

excuse me i m still a noob but i can t see anything....
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ltwvince:
Use root explorer, go to the mention directory, click on the Mount R/W button, edit the file and reboot. ;)
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
I think you forgot to apply hotfix6. 10overclock in hotfix6 doesn't mention symsearch.so or overclock.so.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] B_e_n:
Thanks man

I do exactly the same but with filexpert (which have a root explorer) but it open it but the files is empty

I try with root explorer and it works...
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] B_e_n:
With all the new updates coming the last days I make another new nandroid image

Cyanogen with all the updates and the OC working

To sum up it s the same with the OC working (thanks to Mz trick) and the new Twisted Perception theme by sileshn (with another Gingerbread keyboard so no more tiny keyboard)
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] JiroPrinz8:
Nice..! Running this for quite a while, and now with TI theme and it's d bomb..!
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] spectacle:
Love this rom!

Guys anyone can help me here. I am using the function "hold back button to end program". However, I always have the problem of killing my launcher because its quite sensitive. Is there any way I can prevent my launcher from being killed by this function?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] B_e_n:
The same for me so speed and so classy!!!

I have a new phone !!!

@ spectacle look in settings/CyanogenMod/performance tweaks(or something like this i m translating it from french) and check the keep the launcher in RAM

It must solving your issue
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] :
Auto reboot to OR when choosing reboot recovery

@Mioze

Have you tried using the attached file in /system/etc/init.d to auto reboot to recovery. It works for the milestone.

Prerequisite is to have AOR extracted to root of sdcard.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] B_e_n:
Do you have another trick to reboot the boot.img without a PC?

We had a QuickReboot apps which make that on old rom but it s missing here...

With the Open recovery reboot it the last things needed to be perfect (maybe the 1% battery step to but it s not the priority)
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] spectacle:
Can't. It still kills it. I got butter fingers haha
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] B_e_n:
If this don t work i don t know...

Maybe in the settings of the launcher. I think in Golauncher you have an option "prevent the launcher to be kill by taskkiller" try that
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] :
Just extract the file from the attached zip, push it into /system/etc/init.d and choose reboot recovery. Check if it takes you into OR directly. It does on the milestone.

If it doesn't work the first time, reboot your phone again and reboot to recovery.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] secret_tidus:
any1 here noe where to download the apk for the miui camera?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] B_e_n:
Sorry i m still a noob but with push it you mean copy it with a standard file explorer or you must pass by the terminal? and how???
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] :
Use root explorer. Copy. Reboot phone. Reboot to recovery.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
I think they were talking about fastbooting a custom boot.img. On XT720 we can use "fastboot boot boot.img" to skip the signature check and run a custom kernel (that's how we can enable swap), but we have to use USB from a PC.

I've looked at the autoboot scripts before but I wasn't able to understand what it does. I'll give it another look. I think things may be slightly different on A853 because on XT720 we use a bootstrapped recovery (our situation is similar to DroidX unfortunately--we never had a vulnerable recovery).
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] B_e_n:
It doesn t work.

It rebooted 1sec in the motorola recovery but reboot normally just after

Mioze7Ae is right for us a "QuickBoot" is a lot more usefull than the recovery reboot but it s still usefull (it s not a pain to hold the vol down when rebooting for the moment...)
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] :
Oh. Ok, makes sense.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] try-and-error:
Hmm, strange... I'm sure I had applied it.:confused:

But after reapplying hotfix 6 it's now working :D

Thanks!

You can get "quick reboot" from the market bud, if that's what you are talking about.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] tharan.a:
Hey guys,

I overclocked this ROM to 1Ghz but it seems after a reboot, the setting is not kept. Is there any fix for this? While its overclocked though, its works amazing!

Any way to do this without root explorer?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ltwvince:
Are you referring to the 4 touch sensitive button?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ltwvince:
Simple answer NO. You can try to use nandroid version from B_e_n which have all those fixes from http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16392383&postcount=247

Make sure you wipe dalvik-cache and cache.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ktylife:
I also reported the issue earlier... Nobody cares ;)
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] spectacle:
Yes :( unfortunately I have no Android development knowledge.shall read up once my vacation starts!
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Woody:
Ok, so today sucked bad. I had picked up a corrupted file and had to wipe and repartition my SDcard and start from scratch. What a PITA. Fortunately I was able to save my music and my backups. That was last night. This morning, I go to reformat the card and set up my partitions (I know how, format, where and blah, blah, blah). My "home" ROM's Kahls's V4 (Dexters). I go to restore that one and it doesn't work. After many, many tries and recharges of my battery, I just said screw it and am going to stay on this ROM as my everyday and rebuild it to my liking.

So here is the thing. I know that this has app2ext support, which is what I use and have used for almost a year now. If I put the card in the phone and plug into my partition wizard, it shows up as all FAT. If I take it out and put it in a reader, it shows as FAT, EXT3, SWAP like I had it set up to do. I go into Root Explorer and look at SD-ext and no app folder. I put one in there and rebooted and go back in to see if it is still there and it is gone. This is what made me plug in with phone and then with card reader. I have even wiped the EXT3 partition and filled in the sectors with 1's and 0's.

Anyone have any problems like this? Has anyone actually tried to see their partitions with two different ROMS and make sure they are there on CM6?

For some of the more advanced users here, when I ran AOR SD-ext scan while working on restoring Kahl's, I kept getting notes that the insmods were in Lost and Found, repaired and fixed. Seems that the EXT3 partition won't mount for some reason. I successfully was able to boot up completely twice. Never got a bootloop, where it would run the animation and then screen would go black and animation would come back, but rather it never looped, just stayed in animation until I did a battery pull and started over. A couple of times, I let it do it for about :30mins. Tried on Kal's V4, Wanhu (original), Special Alfa/Beta, and only thing that will boot completely up is CM6 (my thinking is b/c of the EXT3 partition it isn't reading/mounting for some reason).

Thoughts?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
A couple of comments.

The /sd-ext directory is created on the rootfs at each boot. The rootfs exists in RAM. The ext partition on the sdcard is then mounted onto the /sd-ext directory. This causes the contemts of the /sd-ext directory to be replaced with the contents of the ext partition. If the mount fails, the directory that was created during boot is still there, but will be lost when you reboot (because it's in RAM instead of flash or sd card).

So, my explaination is that for whatever reason your /sd-ext isn't mounting and you see the empty rootfs /sd-ext. When you created /sd-ext/app it was in RAM and disappeared when you rebooted. If there are no errors in your card, it should mount.

If you use adb or terminal emulator, you can run the command "mount" with no options to get a list of mountes filesystems. You can also try manually mounting /sd-ext using adb or terminal to see what the error message is ("mount -t ext3 /den/block/mmcblk0p2 /sd-ext")

Another comment. When you export over USB, only the first partition is unmounted and exported. The rest will stay unmodified. If you plug into the USB and export the sd partition, your apps and widgets stored using the froyo native app2sd disappear on the phone. That's fatal for widgets and apps that run a background service. App2ext avoids that because the second partition is never unmounted.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ltwvince:
The same happens to me before few months back and I had to send my phone for repair. They ended up replacing the whole board and is working good as new.

[Milestone XT720 Android Development] LibertyMonger:
ok so i have good backups for the Xda Special, i have a brand new unused SDcard waiting for a new ROM! lol. So I am going to use it for CM6 and get it up to par with the way I like it and make a few backups of this. So I should be able to trade out SdCards when I want to switch between ROM's using Nandroid backups right?

I sure hope it will be ok, cause here I go! lol
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] secret_tidus:
is it because of no taskmanager make my rom easily crash?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] spectacle:
Don't think so. I don't use any task manager at all except for froyo task killer which is more of a manual task killer. U might want to use it to end some apps to free up some memory
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] AA1973:
Maybe, I am not quite sure but you could give "total commander" a try, which has root functionality and a built-in editor ... I didn't edit the files because I am still on MIUI, nevertheless highly appreciate the development of this ROM. Good job,Mioze7Ae!

Opening the files was possible and the permissions can be set as well.

Have you try the CM yet or are you still on srs???

@ tharan.a no no way to make it with out root explorer (I try few other root file explorer but no one works... Don t know why...)

But you can also restore the nandroid image i post before (i think you don t even have to wipe anything)

Have found another issue. The light sensor doesn't work. Neither the usual auto brightness nor the CM auto brightness work. Have tried proxylight tester from market and it finds the sensor but the value isn't changing.

That's really to bad as I was really looking forward the new auto brightness.

Any idea?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] JiroPrinz8:
That's odd, mine works fine, I don't even have to get the app to test it as covering the proximity sensor adjusts the brightness and I can see the changes..

Mine works too and It even shut off the sensitive buttons when in day light. I never notice this before

I am running this rom for several days and I am absolutely happy- thank you so much Mioze7Ae!!!

Its really, really fast, I just had one freeze, I guess two reboots at the beginning and have as much ram as never before.

Ok, camera is not great, but apart from that I have no really issue.

For the ones who are interested in specifications:

running apps: 40

ram: 63

quadrant benchmark. 1181

no problem with the new market, wifi is sometimes slow but overall ok.

Battery is not great but wasn't really good ever ;)

overclocked 1000MHz/ 62vsel

I am absolutely satisfied at the moment. :D

Will final version of this ROM have FM radio with correct volume and media gallery button ?

Thank you

Weird! I m coming from sg too but never had that issue...

Try to restore again....

@ zachary I don t think there will be the radio or the media gallery in the final version

Maybe in a future version (I hope CM7) but for the moment no hope...

But if you are still on miui you have to change you won t recognize your phone.. I think i will make a video to show off how fast is my phone with this rom
